A Muslim woman in California wearing her hijab was robbed of her car Wednesday by two men who made comments about Trump and the Muslim community at San Diego University, according to a police statement.

Police are investigating the incident as a hate crime, robbery and vehicle theft.

Lafayette Police Department were investigating a separate incident at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette where a female student claimed she was beaten, robbed and had her hijab ripped off by two men. She alleged one of them was wearing a white “Trump” hat.

Police have now confirmed the woman fabricated the story. Lafayette Police spokesman Officer Karl Ratcliff said the woman admitted to making up the story after police began to question her about key details, according to The Advocate. Police say the woman offered no explanation for her lying but now may face charges for filing a false police report.

Meanwhile, students at Wellesley College, outside Boston, Massachusetts, posted on Facebook that two people drove around campus Wednesday jeering at African-American students and screaming “Trump” and “Make America Great Again.”

High schools in states like Utah, Minnesota and Pennsylvania have also reported an increase in racial bullying and vandalism.
